A Rich Indiana Woman.

Except that Cr9sus in corsets. the
CHILEAN donna we read about, Mrs.
Meredith. Of Cambridge City. Ind. is
the cattle queen Of the world. Mrs. NJ.
is the widow of Gen. Meredith. Gen.
Meredith when he was alive was one of
the pioneer fine cattle breeders in this
country. He became rich as the craze
for high priced imported shorthorns grew
until in the COS aal tho early EOS he
was worth probably S5O.0OO. He had
the Airdries. and paid ont $4,000 as
readily for a bull that happened TO he
after his own heart rs more conservative
men paid out money for good'lands with
houses on them. But the general ri
broke when IN" craze subsidized. His son
failed after him. Int the widow. with all
her style and grace, had a better head
for business than either the husband or
son. She took the herds that were left
and managed them and where both men
bad failed she succeeded.
Gen. Meredith used to own $4,000
bulls and ran to 5000 calves. His hand
some widow has got over that folly. She
breeds cattle for money, not for glory.
The general was quixotic from the stand
point Of cattle men. The widow is prac-
teal. The modern idea in cattle raising
is to raise a herd and to breed il up until
it has certain distinctive characteristics
of fine beef, for instance, or Of great
beauty. Mrs. Meredith would be happy
if she could sell twenty calves a year for
$3.50 apiece. The general was never
satisfied unless he could have a sale once
in two years and could get 5000 or
$4,000 for his cows and bulls. Cattle
men now are gratifed IL they can take
their customers out into their fields and
show them a herd Of cattle, each one Of
which is so much alike every other one
that there is no distinguishing them.
This is the latter day theory; the gen.
erals was the old fashioned. Men and
women are getting rich now breeding
fine animals. All the old cattle lords
who held the generals views went broke
in 1s75.-Chicago Mail.

Science In the Seventeenth Century.

Thunder is caused by reason Of hot
and dry exhalations shut within the
cloud, which, seeking to get out, with
great violence do knock and rend the
cloud" The hot and dry exhalations in
escaping Is set on fire by the violence
and becomes lightning, when it often
continues burning until it falls to the
ground. And oftentims a great stone
is blown out Of the cloud with 1t; whose
cause is also natural" For, when the
exhalation is drawn up from the earth,
II sometimes takes earthly matter like
unto the finest sand' with It, and this,
Through the moisture which IL getteth
In the air" 'clottereth together" and
'by the excessive heat which 1t findeth
in the general matter Of the exhalation,"
becomes hard like q brick. Sometimes
the exhalations not only carry up earthly
matter with them but also frogs, fishes
and grain, and this accounts for showers
Of frogs, etc.-Saturday Review.

WATCHING THEIR MONEY rluLs.


Methods Taken by New York saloon
keepers to Keep bartender Honest.
The trouble saloon keepers are put to
In this city to keep what they get over
their bar is simply amazing. The
mechanical devices for preventing thefts
by bartenders no longer serve the pur-
pose, though the number OF checks OF
this sort in use increases every day. In
the busiest places one nov sees that an
extra hand is employed to handle the
cash, while the ~bartenders take the metal
price marks from the registering
machines, hand them to the customer,
and then turn the cash over to The cashier
and drop the price card into the lock
box, whose contents are counted up at
night and must correspond with the
cash.
But il is what one does not see that 10
most suggestive of the merciless robbery
to which the proprietors either are, or
think they are, subjected. There 10
one large place which has the dwelling
rooms of the proprietor over it. Tiny
holes are cut in the floor over the cash
drawer end, and, day and night, the eyes
Of some member Of the proprietor's fam
" are glued to these o~riices. In another
place the proprietor employs men, who
are unsupported by the bartenders, to
loiterU in the barroom and surreptitiously
keep account Of every cent taken Owe
the bar while they are present. When q
second one comes in the first one either
goes away or hangs about TO hinder the
bartender from suspecting collision be-
tween the two.
There is a large and busy saloon about
which there is only one feature not
noticeable in any other places of resort.
That is a box like protuberance in the
wall parallel with the side street. Cases
of wine and barrels are piled around this
so as to make it as little noticeable as
possible. Il is a secret room entered in
two ~ways-hy a door from the street and
by a slender iron staircase from the room
overhead. 1t is always kept dark. so
that no one can easily distinguish the
little Sits in il that command a view OF
the bar. The wife Of the proprietor
spends most Of her time in that box
watching the b~artenders. When she
wishes TO be relieved she has "A way of
notifying her husabnd il he is in the
saloon. He then slips on his coat and
hat and goes out into the street. He slips
into the secret side door and takes his
wife's place al the peep holes. If he is
not in the saloon his wife waits for him
or another member of the fam
lily from upstairs. This saloonkeeper is
a German, and is worth $i50,0OO. He
says he would not have been worth more
than half that except for his caution.
His bartenders know that they are
watched and how they are watched, but
can never tell when any one is in the
mysterious box OF when it is empty.
All the modern tell tale devices are in
use in this saloon, but the proprietor has
little faith in them. He says that smart
~bartenders can beat any machine that
was ever invented. He says that the
trouble is moi that hartenders are any
more dishonest than other men, but that
the nature of the business is such that II
is impossible 10 take account of stock"
as in other trades, and the waste must
be exccSsiv" before it can BE- proved

DURING 1886 there were 1902 rail-
way locomotives built in the United
States and Canada. The prices ruled
low, but the tendency was toward very
heavy machines, so that the amount
OF capital invested In the new loco
motives was not less than SIS, 900, 900.
The production was large compared to
that Of the previous year, but 1t was
not equal to the natural increase of
railroad rolling stock. The railroads
In the United States use at present

however. lose sight of the fact that
railroads are owned aud conducted by
corporations. and corporations are not
always managed in the Interest of The

to place certain Limitations upon cor.

Is no longer an open question. No SER
